    Eagle cam!

    Bungled through a machine translation from the original spanish but its pretty readable. The guy has a little video camera he slips into a harness on an eagle and lets it fly about, it looks like your riding on the back of it :) You will need to scroll down to get to the actual video...

    Wearing the hair of the dog
